    Bought my food for the week for £10 thanks to having some pasta sauce & lots of pasta in the cupboards! What on earth would I do without pasta? Pretty sure I'd die or be in worse debt! :)

    Bought eggs, bread and lots of lunchy foods (pita breads, sweet chili sauce, salad etc) so I'm all sorted. No more spending this week so I'm hoping I can do Weds/Thurs/Fri as NSDs. Got to get cat tax tomorrow though :(

    Thanks Emsky!

    NSD today! Well aside from getting a new tax disc but I won't count that.

    Eggs n soldiers for tea! Feels so flamboyant to have breakfast for dinner!

    Other news - My items on eBay are up to £30 and there's still a day to go!

    Ooh watching SuperScrimpers. I was hoping it was going to be like Spendoholics (used to be on bbc3) but instead it's all a bit arts & crafts. Nettle pasta? OR 30p for a bag of pasta at the supermarket... erm supermarket it is. Sorry.

    Although firmly behind not wasting anything!

    I did the free 3 month thing with weight watchers and lost a stone in a month and a half. That was last year and since them I've lost about another 10lbs. It is brilliant if you're motivated but I'm not really feeling it at the moment especially when there are custard creams in the cupboard!! Ideally I'd like to lose another 7lbs then I'll feel happier I think.

    Yesterday was fab and another NSD! :D

    Feel awful today though :( Either have a bug or food poisoning but something isn't right. My belly is grumbling like a good 'un right now! Oh dear. Should be another NSD today mainly because I won't be leaving the house!!!

    On a positive note, my Quidco money has come through. £60. Thanks Sky!

    Had a lovely relaxing weekend but spent too much money :( Ho hum. Back on the wagon today.

    Spent £20ish on food shopping that should last for a week & a half. Car is full of petrol too so plan on having NSDs until this weekend.

    Could actually kill for diet coke now though :(
